In this article i want to share my secret for getting long black braids-Ok I have come across this great hair oil called Mira hair oil and it is great for black braids , now since I don’t have Caucasian hair, I want to share how I use this amazing oil with you   So first I don't wash my hair everyday. I don’t do this because i have black braids on. Rather I wash my hair every 3-4 days.
I use the oil as hair massage oil and a leave in treatment. The oil has no smell so it sits well with my regimen I usually leave Mira hair oil for about 20-30 min.
Then wash it out and shampoo and conditioner. Now I don’t use commercial types I use the ones sold by Mira herbals. I wash my hair with Luke warm water and my final rinse is with cool water. - This by the way minimizes hair loss and allows healthy hair growth   When I am done washing my hair I then detangle and braid my hair.  I take a tiny amount of Mira hair oil and rub the oil on my scalp.  Then I repeat this in the next 3-4 day I should mention that I actually take out my braids and wash it every 3-4 days.  I also apply the oil on the ends of my hair ends every night! Now if you want long black braids you need to follow my example. This has stopped with my regimen with Mira hair oil

When I started using the oil I would use it every night before bed for super fast growth.
I was determined to get back my healthy hair I had as a child
further more I wear a scarf to bed. I never put it in a ponytail or wear it loose, so it will not frizz up.

If you don’t have a natural shampoo you can make one by mixing a cup of corn flour with a cup of water diluted with 3 drops of apple cider vinegar
now these is a myth out that that if you want long black hair you should not wash your hair often, this is wrong, African hair is just like any other hair and it needs to be washed often

If you want healthy black braids, you should wash your hair when your scalp gets dirty and stop using commercial hair products that contain chemicals which dry out the scalp

When you do wash it your hair, concentrate on cleaning your scalp. You don't need to shampoo your braids at all. Try and ensure your scalp is kept clean. Mira herbals even makes a "dry" shampoo which is perfect for braids.

As an added bonus you can use braid spray which is beneficial for your scalp, especially if you have scalp problems.

If you want long healthy braid I advice you use Mira hair oil

It helped me grow healthy and long black braids and it will help you as well
